R.I.P. TV: Which shows have gotten the ax?

Premise: Type-A blond divorcee searches for love while raising twins and sextuplets. Seasons on air: Seven (Two as just "Kate Plus 8"). Why it got axed: Jon Gosselin probably is at a club right now telling a 20-year-old that the show is dunzo because he's not on it anymore. But we know the real reason: Kate grew her hair out.

As if it weren't already tough to get a job in Hollywood, TV execs recently dumped several high-profile shows, meaning several, ahem, vibrant personalities are back on the job market. Nevermind that their shows were low-rated or eye-gougingly terrible, we're glad we're not competing with the likes of Kate Gosselin for work (she's scary!). But to recap, here are the shows that have been canceled, plus our thoughts about why. (Ariel Alexovich, RedEye)
